Your favorite law lawyer’s favorite law lawyer.
It’s official! I’ve joined Roberts Markland LLP, doing personal injury, appellate, and the former -judge-unusual-cases docket. I feel so lucky to get to work with the judge I clerked for and to work somewhere where I genuinely adore everyone, top to bottom.

SCOTX has pulled off the bandaid and proposed going to a single step Petition process.
Huge changes for your Texas
Appellate nerds.

Proper husband hype squad after a day in court: But did anyone say how hot you are? Because if not, serious oversight.

Writing something and the worst case for my argument was . . . authored by me.

I just handed in my final exam for my arbitration course! It’s happening!

Whoa. I’m in arbitration class today and learned that a pilot program has debuted that has **AI** as the arbitrator for smaller construction disputes!

It is delightful that the press release about my new gig hasn’t gone out yet and I’m already getting nice case referrals from my former (always in my heart) colleagues on the bench.

The Lenster is extremely excited about birthdays in general and his in particular. He wakes up every morning and confirms, “Lenny birthday not over?” No, I promise you, baby, you did not miss it. There will be big fanfares for days in two countries.

In case you think you can be anonymous practicing law in the fourth largest city in America, I got approached by someone who recognized me because she was a baby federal prosecutor on a case I briefly handled 10 years ago. However you are, it follows you, so be not a jerk.

Mistakes were made. Apparently I have to pay a $100 duty on the cool new work bag I bought for my husband’s birthday. They let me know after it had already shipped. Officially tired of winning.

Let’s be clear. The “they” in this sentence is the law and the “little fights” are domestic violence, which results in 1,300 deaths and 2 million injuries per year.
Trump minimizes domestic abuse during a talk at the Museum of the Bible: "Things that take place in the home, they call crime ... If a man has a little fight with the wife, they say this was a crime, see?"

I’m thinking of doing a deconstructed mixtape on TikTok with the songs I listen to as I write, really leaning into my former DJness. It would be fun even if only 8 people see it 😆

Happy wedding Friday-YAY!

The Lenster learned greetings in Spanish at day care yesterday so I asked him, how do you say hello in Spanish? He looked at me like I’m a dope and repeated, “Hello in Spanish.”

Why should the federal system quit being cashless and make people pay bail bonds? What end does that serve?

The Lenster watched The Blues Brothers, his first movie, last night. He was absolutely rapt. This feels like accidental parenting gold.

Sometimes opposing counsel behaves so poorly I’m tempted to make them a binder of the ethics rules and tab and highlight the relevant portions for ease of reference.

Had a wedding but my timeline was thrown off by sick toddler. I don’t usually wear my Asian grandma sneakers to important events. Dress for the job you want, I guess.

Shout out to the expert who told me I was so nice he doubted I was a lawyer.
